Weinstein Elliot, MD, FAAP

I have been a patient of Doctor Weinstein’s since I was 4 months old up until I was 18. I am now 24 I am also a mommy of a 2 ½ year old which has also been seeing Weinstein since she was born. I wouldn’t go to any other Doctor. He took care of me as a child and he and his staff have taken perfect care of my daughter. His staff has been here since I was a baby also. They take almost every insurance, and Dr. Weinstein even speaks Spanish. I recommend this office.

Dr. Weinstein and his staff are wonderful! We have been seeing him for a year and we couldn’t be happier. Faith is great and always helpful. She is very knowledgeable and personable and really, when it comes to healthcare (or any service-​related industry) the front office staff can make all the difference. I’ve had experiences where I’ve wondered if I was in hell — dealing with terrible negative attitudes, waiting, etc. But I don’t have any hesitation calling, coming in for appts, etc. It’s all a smooth process. And, as a professor I really appreciate that his office is a teaching office. He has med students from Western training in his office, I hope they all adopt his bedside manner with kids!

Weinstein is my son’s doctor. We’ve been seeing him for almost a year. He’s really great with my son and answers all of my questions clearly. The front desk staff is great and extremely helpful as well.

We just moved to the area and my daughter got sick so I was kind of desperate and decided to take her here. I clearly specified that she was not feeling well at all, she vomited and has not eaten anything. They had me 1 hour waiting and doctor didn’t even see her. A medical student came in asking general questions which could have been avoided seeing that a baby wasn’t feeling well (otherwise I am totally fine with students) I just left crying and desperate and headed to ER.
The staff is sweet as candy but I would not come back at all. The place looks unorganized and untidy. Would not recommend for newcomers in the area.

Dr Weinstein is the pediatrician for my son. He is very good and always explains any of his concerns in great detail. He is available to answer questions and his staff is really nice as well. Faith has repeatedly gone out of her way by calling to make sure things have been OK when my son has been sick. If you don’t have insurance, they will do a preliminary application for Medi-​Cal for you so your child can still be seen until you find health insurance. I only give a ⁴⁄₅ because the wait is usually long. I usually am at the office for 1 – 2 hours… or more depending. Most of that time is spent just sitting around waiting… which is not fun. I would rather wait in the waiting room instead of an exam room because at least they play Disney/​Pixar movies out in the waiting room. Also, the décor is a little odd in the exam rooms.
